Wade Garrett 155 Posted June 7, 2023 Does that include subsidizing the priest who are harming the kids? Of course it does. Conservatives love funding the actual organizations harming kids while screeching about groups that do not. That's why so many catholic schools closed the last decade. Smart parents realized that priests and religious "leaders" can not be trusted around kids or to police their own. Cover up and move the offender so they can do it again. So weird that folks still think religion is anything but a con. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

The liberal tranny agenda is responsible for the largest pedophile ring currently in the US. Anyone not acknowledging either is being blind because of sidez. It is what it is.

wiffleball 4,797 Posted June 7, 2023 Funny you should mention this. Because about 10 minutes ago I was taking a poop and I thought to myself, " myself? Why aren't they called Jesusians instead of christians?" Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
wiffleball 4,797 Posted June 7, 2023 I'm surprised this happened in oklahoma. I could see back east maybe, but not North Texor. Hell, the only time I've ever really felt bias against Catholics was when I was in texas. And Oklahoma is just like a suburb of texas. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

That being said I think we just let people believe in their little false ideology and go be happy with it, just dont push it on me; whether it is Islam or Catholixism or Liberalism..... I am resitant to this move on its face. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

JustinCharge 2,397 Posted June 7, 2023 it would be really hilarious if a catholic group decided to declare itself "not a religion" but just a group of people with a set of moral codes that believe in God. Since there is no definition of religion in the Constitution, it should be free and clear. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

The only thing about this that gives me pause is that it appears they are going to leverage access to the school as a choice. But still, I prefer we not have religion pushed in schools....no matte if it is christianity, islam, liberalism or anything. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
